Tide of Death, the first in the DI Andy Horton series of crime novels set in the Solent area of England and my thriller, In Cold Daylight, have now been published in China.
Tide of Death, the first in the DI Andy Horton series of crime novels set in the Solent area of England and my thriller, In Cold Daylight, have now been published in China.
Tide of Death was first published in 2006 and hailed by Amazon in the UK as the Best of British Crime Fiction in that year.
In Tide of Death it is Horton’s second day back in Portsmouth CID after being suspended for eight months following a damaging accusation of misconduct while working undercover on an operation to expose a pornography smuggling ring. Whilst out running in the early morning he trips over the naked battered body of a man on the beach. PC Evans has been stabbed the night before, DCI Uckfield is up before a promotion board and Sergeant Cantelli is having trouble with his fifteen-year-old daughter. But Horton’s mind is on other things not least of which is trying to prove his innocence. Beset by personal problems and aided by Cantelli, Horton sets out to find a killer who will stop at nothing to cover his tracks. As he gets closer to the truth, and his personal investigations start to uncover dark secrets that someone would rather not have exposed, he risks not only his career but also his life…
Since then DI Andy Horton has gone from strength to strength with six more published in the series, the latest being Footsteps on the Shore, which is available in hardcover.
Number seven, A Killing Coast is to be published by Severn House in January 2012, and I am currently writing the eighth in the series. Many of the DI Horton crime novels are also available as e books, on Kindle, as unabridged audio books, and in Large Print (and in paperback) all bringing new readers to the series.
In Cold Daylight has also recently been published in China. It was voted the third most popular novel in a public poll by readers for World Book Day 2008.
In Cold Daylight is loosely based on a true story. It is a fast-paced thriller about one man's quest to discover the truth behind the deaths of fire fighters. When fire fighter Jack Bartholomew dies whilst trying to put out a fire in a derelict building, his closest friend, marine artist Adam Greene sets out to discover the truth behind his death and those of other fire fighters from the same watch. Soon Adam soon finds himself caught up in a mysterious and dangerous web of deceit. By exposing a secret that has lain dormant for years he is forced to face his own dark secrets, and as the facts reveal themselves the prospects for his survival look bleak. But for Adam it is too late to turn back; he has to get to the truth no matter what the cost, even if it means his life.
I hope the Chinese people who buy the two novels that have been translated enjoy reading them.

Footsteps on the Shore
My round up of the highlights of 2013
Here is a round up of the highlights of 2013, videos and photo slide show to come in following blogs.
The DI Andy Horton marine mystery crime novels were published in China in 2013 by Nanhai Publishing Company of Haikou who bought translation rights to six in the DI Horton series published in the UK and USA by Severn House.
Undercurrent, the ninth in the popular marine mystery crime series featuring the flawed and rugged detective DI Horton was published in the UK, Commonwealth in January 2013 and USA in May 2013.
Footsteps on the Shore the sixth in the DI Andy Horton series was published in Large Print on 28 March by Severn House Publishers and as an unabridged audio book in July by Isis Publishing and read by Gordon Griffin who also reads the others in the DI Horton series.
Tide of Death, the first in the DI Horton series, Dead Man's Wharf, the fourth DI Horton crime novel and Footsteps on the Shore, the sixth in the DI Andy Horton series, went Underground in London to help commuters to while away their journey.
Death Surge, the tenth to feature the flawed and rugged DI Andy Horton was published in the UK and Commonwealth by Severn House Publishers on 30 September.
Tide of Death, Deadly Waters, and The Suffocating Sea, the third in the DI Andy Horton series took to the New York Subway for commuters to while away their journey.
A Killing Coast, the seventh in the DI Andy Horton series, was published in paperback and as an unabridged audio book by Isis publishing, read by Gordon Griffin who also reads the others in the DI Horton series.
Severn House Publishers bought World English language rights to the eleventh in the DI Andy Horton series. Shroud of Evil will be published in the UK and Commonwealth in April 2014 in hardcover and in the USA in hardcover in August 2014 when it will also be released as an e book.
I entertained over three thousand people in 2013 with tales of crime writing, murder, mystery and mayhem giving twenty two talks and appearing on five panels around the UK.
I spoke to many more via the wonderful medium of radio with nine radio interviews and media coverage in local and regional press.
On the writing front I finished writing Death Surge which was published in 2013, and also finished writing the eleventh in the DI Horton series, Shroud of Evil, which will be published in April 2014.
I started writing the twelfth in the DI Horton series.
A lovely year. My thanks to all my readers, my publishers, to the libraries and organisations who have hosted my talks, to the audiences who came to hear me, to the press, radio presenters and their listeners, to bloggers and their readers,and to my family, friends and everyone who has supported me throughout 2013. And a special thank you to the hunky DI Andy Horton!
Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas.
